After Practicing S*x With My Childhood Friend I Don’t Even Like, I Started Becoming Popular With Beautiful Girls. However, for Some Reason, My Childhood Friend Starts Acting Cold - Chapter 26 - I Might Actually Be Getting a Tiny Bit Serious...♪

Chapter 26 – I Might Actually Be Getting a Tiny Bit Serious…♪

“You there! Stop that!”

“Whoa! Wha-what!?”

“It’s time for the children to go home!”

Saiai ran out towards the vacant lot, swaying her silver hair and shouting.

“If you don’t go home, Onee-san will eat you!”

That’s not even funny, Saiai…

Onee-shota——I only indulge lightly, so I don’t really understand it well.

“Guhh! It’s the gray-haired old hag! Scary!!”

“Ha-haahhh!? This is not gray hair! This is called silver hair! I’m a beautiful silver-haired girl, you know!?”

“Get away from me, you monster! Everyone, run!

The bullies disperse at once.

“Mooo! I’m really going to eat you when you say that!”

“Eat us!?”

“If you learn your lesson from this, don’t bully girls anymore!”

Scattered and screaming, the bullies left the vacant lot.

“Haha… You’re a gray-haired… gray-haired hag! …Hahaha!”

“Senpai, I’m really angry right now.”

“Ah, yes. I’m sorry.”

She’s pissed off.

Just as Saiai gave me a fierce look resembling that of a wrathful deity, in an instant, she broke into a smile and rushed over to the girl.

“Are you OK?”

“Ye-yes… Thank you, beautiful Onee-chan…”

“Yes. You’re welcome. You’re a good girl.”

I think the little girl probably chose her words carefuly because she was scared of what Saiai said earlier.

Smiling gently, Saiai stroked the girl’s head.

“Hueee… Ehhhhh. Fuaaa…”

Then, as if a thread of tension had been broken, tears welled up in the girl’s eyes…

“I was scared… I was so scared…”

“I see, you were really scared, weren’t you… But it’s okay now.”

“Onee-chan…”

Saiai hugged the girl who started crying with both hands.

Her expression is a far cry from her usual devilish one, and I would say that she has the compassion of an angel to match her appearance…

It’s as if she’s taken on a different persona that I don’t know.

“You see, little boys want to bully the girls they like.”

“Huh?”

“For example, Onii-chan over there loves me so much that he’s always acting rudely. Sometimes he says terrible things to me.”

Oi…

I’m not like little boys. And I don’t like you.

She’s no angel after all.

“So those kinds earlier, I’m sure they like you, too.”

“Really…? But they’re scary…”

“That’s right. They’re scary, right? That’s why…”

Saiai smiled and brushed the girl’s fringes out of her eyes to meet her gaze.

“That’s why you need to be more and more beautiful.”

“Beautiful…?”

Yes, Saiai nodded with a smile.

“You will be so beautiful that the boys will fawn over you. Then, they won’t bully you anymore. Instead, boys will be your slaves. They will be monkeys who will do anything you say. Use them.”

What the hell are you teaching little girls?

But there’s nothing I can say, I haven’t done anything, and I can’t even intervene.

The girl’s hero is Saiai.

Feeling like I should at least do something while watching, I picked up what had been dropped on the ground.

“If you think about it, doesn’t it seem like nothing if they are a bit mean to you? Someday us girls will be on top. Boys can’t go against what pretty girls say. Right?”

“Yes… Yes!! Can I be as beautiful as Onee-chan?”

“Yes… I’m sure you can. Anyone can be pretty.”

“Yes!”

As a man, I wanted to put in a bit of a retort, but the girl finally showed a smile.

This is where the future little devil bitch candidate was born… Ugh…

At the right moment, I handed over the book I picked up to the girl.

“Here. Don’t forget this. It’s important, right?”

“Ah… My book… Tha-thank you, Onii-chan…♪”

“Yea-yeah…”

The girl smiles, holding the little book I gave her.

She’s not a little devil. She’s an angel!

What is this throbbing in my chest…

Well, young lady, it seems you have the makings of a beauty.

I want to take you home and raise you up myself before you’re tainted by this bitch.

No, don’t call the police, you’re just being paranoid.

“Can you go home alone?”

“I’m okay! I live near here!”

Saying cheerfully, the girl waved her hand and left.

Saiai also waved until the girl was out of sight.

As for me, I ended up staring at her, who was somehow not linked to the image I had until now.

“……? What’s wrong?”

After a long time, our eyes crossed.

“Ah, I thought it was kind of unexpected.”

“Yes. That wasn’t like me.”

“So you know that yourself.”

Saiai walks aimlessly, staring at a vacant lot that was deserted.

It looked as if Saiai herself was also searching for her emotions.

“…Maybe the me from the past was a good child who could say that certain things are just wrong, that you shouldn’t do bad things. Well, I don’t know for sure.”

“Huh? You’re talking about yourself, right? How do you not know…”

“Senpai.”

Before I knew it, Saiai, who was in front of me, covered my lips with her cold index finger

“Stop. No more, okay?”

“Why…”

“If you want to get to know me, we have to have a much deeper relationship first.”

“Hah…”

“So, shall we go?”

Saiai left the vacant lot and walked ahead alone.

“Hey, wait.”

“Fufu♪”

Immediately after I started chasing her, Saiai turned around with the setting sun behind her.

“Boys are attracted to mysterious girls, aren’t they?”

I don’t know about that…

It’s not like I’m interested in the little bitch Saiai Kanade.

Is everything that has happened so far a setup for this line?

However, she was certainly as beautiful as a painting, illuminated by the setting sun, and contrary to my feelings, I felt my cheeks heat up just a little.

Leaving the vacant lot, we walked down the quiet street at dusk.

“You know, I think you’d be a good primary school teacher or something.”

Muttering casually, I recalled her response to the child earlier…

“How many children can I eat?” (T/N: Damn…)

“Sorry, I was careless. Please pretend I didn’t say that.”

What is that heaven of an elementary school? Health and PE would be amazing!

I want to experience that, but I definitely don’t want little children to go through that in the future!

“I really don’t understand…”

“I don’t understand either~”

Sometimes she looks like an angel, other times like a little devil. It’s as if both of them are coexisting within her.

Well, she acts more like the little devil bitch though.

No, let’s stop.

When I think like this, I’m playing into her hands.

“But… Let me tell you a little bit about what I know about myself.”

“Huh?”

Saiai took a step closer to me.

Then she whispered softly into my ear.

“You see… I might actually be getting a tiny bit serious…♪”

“Huh……?”

Jumping back, I distanced myself from Saiai.

“I want senpai.”

The setting sun glows a deep red, illuminating everything, even coloring Saiai’s expression.

Her shining eyes pierce through me and won’t let go.

“Wha-what do you mean? Hu-huhhh?”

“Because there are so many cute girls around you, aren’t there, Senpai? That cat, Himesaki-senpai, Tachibana-senpai… They’re not as pretty as me, but they’re all extremely beautiful girls.”

A hot breath, akin to ecstasy, escaped her.

It approaches so slowly that the breath is on my cheek.

Her silver hair swayed. And a sweet fragrance wafted through the air.

Both her hands caress my chest, as if to supplicate.

“What if I took those girls’ favorite person? If I took senpai away from them… Wouldn’t it be exciting? I’d be so wet♡ …Right, senpai?♡”

“St-stop that, I don’t want to know your fetishes…”

“Even just thinking about that… I already feel so excited and wet♡”

Pervert! There’s a pervert here! I knew from the beginning though…

Damn it… Her perverted power is two steps ahead of me…!

With both hands on my chest, she slowly put her weight on them.

Her face, her lips, were a few centimeters closer…

“Chuu~”

A soft touch on my right cheek.

“!!! Y-y-y-y-you, you…!!!”

“Fufu. Flustered senpai is cute♪ Would you have preferred it on the lips?”

“N-nooo!?!?”

“If Senpai wants me to, I’m always willing to do it, even with my lips. But I don’t want to force myself anymore… so I’ll stop here…♪”

Kyaa, said Saiai, smiling shyly.

For some reason, her expression looked different from the lewd, devilish one she had been showing up until now… She’s like a love-struck maiden…

“I’ll take Senpai’s heart and love.”

Saiai turned her back to hide her face and waved her hand at me.

“Well then, well then. Let’s definitely meet at school next time. Senpai~♪”

◇◆◇

“Eh, it’s unlocked.”

When I came home, I felt a presence in the house.

“Welcome home.”

The person who greeted me at the door was my childhood friend——Nekomura Kohaku, who was supposed to have left.

“Ah, yeah… I’m home.”

Why are you entering people’s homes when they’re not home?

How did you get in here in the first place, you stray cat?

“Here.”

Along with the muttering, a tinkling sound could be heard.

It’s a key with a little bell on it.

A duplicate key…

Is that a default for childhood friends?

Dear Mother, I don’t feel comfortable sleeping in this house anymore.

“Where have you been?”

“Well, um… The convenience store?”

I quickly tried to deceive her.

“Did you not buy anything?”

“…A gacha card. I’ve already opened it and thrown it away, don’t ask me why.”

“Hmm. Did you get the character you wanted?”

“No.”

“Shame.”

“Shut up.”

Kohaku chuckled.

Don’t laugh at people’s misfortune. Well, that was a lie, so it’s fine.

“Are your parents home yet?”

“I don’t know.”

“Come and have dinner at my place.”

“Huh?”

“You just went home the other day. Mom is annoying me.”

“I see. Okay. I’ll go.”

“Yes. Let’s eat together~”

We left the house together.

“I guess we’ll have to practice another time.”

“……Yes.”

I don’t know what kind of change of heart had occurred, but the distance between me and Kohaku, who was standing next to me, seemed to be closer than at the entrance ceremony.
